Welcome to the show, this is episode number…wait. Sorry. Habit. This is The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Podcaster, your favorite new book about the exciting medium of, well, podcasting. Produced by New Media Expo (the Artist Formerly Known as BlogWorld) and written by me, Daniel M. Clark, this tome aims to take you from zero to podcast in…however many pages this thing has. I’m writing it out of order, you see, and… well, never mind. Zero to podcast! With facts! And tutorials! And humor! Such as it is. And lots and lots of pictures so I could pad my page count show you exactly how to get things done! This book is for podcasters at the beginner level (with some intermediate thrown in to keep things exciting). Podcasting has come a long way from its roots in the internet of the late 90’s and early 00’s. What began as basic spoken-audio file sharing has evolved into syndicated radio-style productions that today rival both radio and television in terms of quality, production values, and style. Companies are pumping money into the medium at a tremendous rate. Major television networks and movie studios are producing podcasts to go along with their shows and films. And celebrities have embraced the format—especially comedians, who have taken to podcasting in huge numbers. News outlets like CNN and NBC News and sports networks like ESPN produce podcasts. www.NMXlive.com | @NewMediaExpo | (858) 309-4747 | Copyright © New Media Expo 2012 The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Podcaster | Page 6 It’s a really exciting time to be a podcaster. The best part? You can do it, too. You don’t need a ton of money. You don’t need to go to school to learn how to do it. You don’t need to have a voice like Oprah or Brian Williams. You probably already have the basic tools necessary to get started, and if you don’t, I’ll show you what you need and where to get it. Who am I? I’m Daniel, and I’ve been podcasting since December 22, 2008. I have created, produced and/or hosted nine shows accounting for nearly 300 episodes. I love podcasting! In 2010 I launched a podcast network called QAQN (because I really wanted a four-letter dot-com and it was available cheap1). I’ve given presentations about podcasting, I’ve consulted clients about it, written about it for the NMX blog, and here I am now, tapped by NMX to write the Daniel M. Clark Ultimate Guide to getting started with it. Fantastic! There’s so much awesomeness coming up that I don’t want to take up any more of your time, so I have just a few more things to lay on you here in the introduction. If you’d like to know more about me, my About the Author page at the end of the book has some additional information. A little more before we get started... This book focuses almost exclusively on audio podcasting. I will occasionally touch on video podcasting and screencasts, but really only in passing. Video adds a whole new set of problems, challenges and rewards to podcasting, and it’s beyond the scope of this book. Don’t worry though: everything you learn here can be used to make video productions sound awesome. If you don’t have great audio, it doesn’t matter how fantabulous your moving pictures are. 1. I also thought that the N might stand for Network and that eventually I’d figure out what the QAQ might stand for. I haven’t. The best I’ve heard so far is “quackin’,” which…I guess I’ll take. www.NMXlive.com | @NewMediaExpo | (858) 309-4747 | Copyright © New Media Expo 2012 The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Podcaster | Page 7 Speaking of “beyond the scope of this book,” you will find that there is a strong bias toward Wordpress going forward. This is not to say that you can’t be a very successful podcaster using another platform! I will be touching on setting-up other platforms, but with over 120 Content Management Systems to choose from2, I cannot reasonably give non-Wordpress instruction on everything. The book would end up six times longer and excessively convoluted. If you have a question about another platform, please join the NMX community on Facebook and you’ll get pointed in the right direction. There are a dozen ways—at least— to become a podcaster. This book examines only a few, but you will be able to start and publish your own shows by the time we’re done. From there, further exploration and research can take you in many different directions! Speaking of the book ending up “six times longer and excessively convoluted,” please know that while I would absolutely love to include information about every piece of software available for every task, it’s just not humanly possible. I will talk, for example, about Skype at length because Skype is used by just about everyone in a podcasting situation. I cannot, however spend a lot of pages talking about every stat tracking service, every Wordpress plugin that might make your life easier, or each of the dozens of FTP clients on each platform. Speaking of platforms, a note about computers. I harbor no ill will toward Microsoft Windows or PCs. I am, however, a Mac guy. My primary computer is a Mac, my phone is an iPhone, even my router is an Apple Airport Extreme. You will definitely see a Mac bias in this book. Please don’t take offense. Some of my best friends use PCs. 2. Seriously—although some are more popular than others. www.NMXlive.com | @NewMediaExpo | (858) 309-4747 | Copyright © New Media Expo 2012 The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Podcaster | Page 8 I hear some of them even enjoy it! Speaking of—wait, what, I can’t joke about that? Okay, look…the thing I want you to remember most about the PC/Mac debate as it pertains to podcasting is that it doesn’t matter one bit which one you use. Folks can argue pros and cons for each platform until the aliens give Elvis back, but believe me… it doesn’t matter. PC or Mac, your choice. Either works perfectly well. (But Macs are better.) Onward! www.NMXlive.com | @NewMediaExpo | (858) 309-4747 | Copyright © New Media Expo 2012 The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Podcaster | Page 9 Chapter Two: Why Podcast? “That introduction was a little weird,” you’re thinking, “but this podcasting thing is intriguing. Maybe the book could go on about what podcasting is and why I should do it. Maybe there could even be some quotes from working podcasters about why they do it.

Cartert Scott Lunttt ABSTRACT With the relative democratization of broadcast communication brought about by the new media technologies of podcasting and Internet broadcasting, new questions have arisen regarding appropriate legal standards for regulatory efforts. In particular, Internet broadcasters and podcasters collide with licensing agencies responsible for implementing U.S. and foreign copyright law. Media convergence has caused confusion amongst policymakers, industry professionals and the public with respect to the application of traditional copyright law to these new technologies.

  • The New Aural Actuality: an Exploration of Music, Sound And
    THE NEW AURAL ACTUALITY: AN EXPLORATION OF MUSIC, SOUND AND MEANING IN THE COMPOSED FEATURE DOCUMENTARY PODCAST by Benjamin Richard Phillip Horner Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 Abstract This practice-led thesis explores the creative techniques and philosophies used in composing feature documentary podcasts and how listeners engage with the material and make meaning from it. Podcasting as a medium presents a new and so far unexplored way of interfacing with audio documentary and this study works to demonstrate crucial differences from radio practice in terms of intention and expression, how material is made, consideration for its audience, and how its programmes are distributed. Using post-structural theory, specifically Deleuze and Guattari’s ideas on interconnected networks of affective transmission, podcasting’s relationship to radio is explored, as is how listeners make meaning through their interaction with both the heard material and the devices upon which it is accessed. These theories are then applied to the characteristically open remit of the audio documentary to study how speech, music, sound and silence may be understood to generate meaning, emotion and a sense of immersion in the listener. It is suggested that modes of programme access, listening customs, and interpretational symbolism work together to impart information vital to the ability to connote and denote what is being heard, and that in this way the composed feature can be situated very closely to musical practice and engagement. Taking cues from musical and cinematic analytical practice three podcast programmes are closely scrutinised for an understanding of their constituent material, structural shape, and potential affective transmissions, before interviews with their producers are presented to discuss conceptual intentions and execution.

Types of podcast Audio only podcast - Uses mp3 files, so works on any mp3 player. Enhanced podcast - Audio + images, like a slide show. Only viewable on a computer with iTunes or later versions of iPods are able to play it. M4a file format. E.g. Museum of Houston Video podcast - Comes with a video & audio stream.

  • The Indie Maximum Exposure List a Guide for the Rest of Us
    Indie Maximum Exposure List Compiled by Ariel Hyatt, Ariel Publicity / Cyber PR © 2010 Ariel Publicity THE INDIE MAXIMUM EXPOSURE LIST A GUIDE FOR THE REST OF US My phone rang last week and it was Tom Silverman from Tommy Boy calling to dis- cuss my panel for his upcoming Chicago New Music Seminar. Tom was half amused and half disgusted. “Have you seen Billboard this week?” He asked. Since Billboard is a publication I largely ignore, I fessed up: “No. Why?” “You have to see this article,” he said. “It’s the most ridiculous thing ever.” In a few moments, I was reading it and I was laughing out loud. Here are a few excerpts: From the September 26 edition of Billboard: BILLBOARD’S 2009 MAXIMUM EXPOSURE LIST “Today the ways artists can promote their music have proliferated so rapidly that it can be hard to keep up with what’s new -- what’s actually cutting through the clutter. It’s in this context that Billboard decided to geek out with 25 promotions and publicity experts across genres and mediums to create the ultimate multimedia metric: Our first Maximum Exposure List.” -Intro from the first Billboard list which ran in 2008 I sampled a few random ones from the 2009 list to give you a sense and the whole 2008 list can be found here: http://arielpublicity.com/blog/archives/billboardmax 1: Synch placement in a TV ad for Apple 2: Performances on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” 6: Synch placement in Guitar Hero 15: ‘Saturday Night Live’ performance 35: Cover story in Rolling Stone 63: Album/single review on Pitchfork 2 65: Video featured as YouTube music spotlight 71: Integrated tour sponsorship with leading mobile carrier 73: Performance on ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ 78: Cover story in Spin 89: Song played on ABC’s ‘Dancing With The Stars’ So considering 97 of the things on the Maximum Exposure List are very, very long shots for the majority of independent musicians, I have redefined this list and present a guide for the rest of us.

Eckstein Title: SOUND REASON: RADIOLAB AND THE MICROPOLITICS OF PODCASTING Advisor: Darrin K. Hicks, PhD Degree Date: August 2013 ABSTRACT Over the past 10 years, the practice of podcasting has migrated from the margins of technological conferences to a central role in popular culture. Podcasting is an Internet-based broadcast medium that relies on Real Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds—a peer subscription service—to automatically retrieve and upload content to a portable MP3 player. In light of its growth and popularity, I ask, ―what is the podcast‘s political potential?‖ In this project, I argue that the podcast has the potential to serve as an instrument of liberal and neurological reasoning.
